-
3.00 Credits
The laws of thermodynamics and their application to the properties of gases, liquids, and solids, and to homogeneous and heterogeneous equilibria; electrochemistry; chemical kinetics, introduction to quantum theory and its application to atomic and molecular structure and spectra; statistical mechanics and thermodynamics. Prerequisites: M 240 or M 242, one year of college physics, and CH 111. CH 231 and M 242 are recommended.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to physical measurements in chemistry. Experiments are carried out in thermodynamics, thermochemistry, chemical kinetics, and spectroscopy. Emphasis is placed on the statistical treatment of experimental data and computer programming. Two threehour laboratories in addition to lecture. Prerequisites: CH 347, CS 111 or CS 114, and CH 226. CH 231 is recommended. Laboratory fee. (Writing-intensive course)
-
3.00 Credits
Lecture and laboratory courses on special topics in various branches of chemistry to increase the depth and breadth of chemical understanding for both chemistry and non-chemistry majors by expanding on topics covered in the chemistry curriculum. These courses may not be counted as advanced chemistry electives by chemistry majors. Prerequisite: Permission of instructor. For laboratory courses, laboratory fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Instrumentation and instrumental methods of analysis are discussed, including spectroscopic (mass spec., IR, Raman, UV-Visible, NMR, Luminescence, Atomic Absorption, and Lasers), chromatographic (LC, GC, and CE), electrochemical, and surface science techniques. Each method is developed from the theory through the instrumentation to the practical aspects of measurement and interpretation. Two three-hour laboratories in addition to lecture. Prerequisites: CH 226, CH 230, and one PHY course. Laboratory fee.
-
3.00 Credits
Systematic identification of pure compounds. Separation and identification of mixtures. Application of modern instrumental methods. Two three-hour laboratories in addition to lecture. Prerequisites: CH 426 and 231. Laboratory fee.
-
3.00 Credits
This is a survey of cell chemistry, including energy generation, enzymology, biosynthetic, and catabolic pathways and the control of metabolism. Quantitative problems in biochemistry are given. Prerequisites: BIO majors: CH 230-231, or CH 114 and 136, and at least 16 credits in biology; chemistry majors: CH 230-231 and at least 16 credits in chemistry, with 8 credits of biology or equivalent recommended.
-
3.00 Credits
Topics in advanced inorganic chemistry, such as atomic and molecular term states, valence-bond and molecular orbital theories of chemical bonding, molecular geometry, the hydrogen bond, crystal structure, coordination compounds, and ligand field theory. Prerequisite: CH 348.
-
3.00 Credits
Synthesis and characterization of organic and inorganic compounds, including such species as metal coordination complexes, organometallics, hydrides, and compounds containing elements in unusual oxidation states. Modern preparative techniques may include ion-exchange, high vacuum, high and low temperature, inert atmosphere, and chromatography. Synthesized compounds are analyzed by physical and chemical methods. Two three-hour laboratory periods in addition to lecture. Prerequisites: CH 231 and 349. Laboratory fee. (Writing-intensive course)
-
4.00 Credits
Original research in a project approved by the department and supervised by a faculty member, culminating in the writing and oral presentation of the results. A student may enroll in undergraduate research more than once; however, a maximum of 4 credits may be applied toward the advanced chemistry electives required for the chemistry major. With approval of the department, credit in CH 482, 483, or 484 may be substituted for other required courses, such as CH 456, or the third semester of physics if the research area is sufficiently similar. Prerequisite: Permission of the department. Laboratory fee.
-
0.50 Credits
Performance observation, critical analysis, registration problems, performance practices, and general musicianship. One hour weekly. May be repeated for additional credit.
